Which NBA free agents will actually be switching teams this summer? We break down the most likely candidates to make the leap to a new location... Check out our Substack:basketballbull...
It depends on the possibility of other FAs, My Lakers CANNOT do another yr of a backcourt of DLO & Reaves, other backcourt, especially the west salivate & fly pass them, if Garland or Murray is realistically available, at a somewhat reasonable price, Lakers need one of them, the price to get DeMar DeRozen is another possibility, Malcolm Brogden is another possibility.....
@DarthChewy927 DLO is a good shooter, that he is, BUT he's atrocious on DEFENSE, now if U can't or haven't seen that fact, I don't what to tell you. Reaves tries harder than DLO on defense but his lack of foot speed leaves him a step & half BEHIND his man, regularly! NO TEAM can have 2 bad defensive guys starting, NO TEAM, this is why other WC backcourt constantly torch them! Now DeRozen may not be a defensive stopper but he has a great mid range game, droves to the basket, which puts more preasure on the defense & causes the defense to foul, which means the Lakers get more free throws, plus ge can play without the ball...case close!
@DarthChewy927 Either DLO or Reaves have to be let go or traded or go to the bench or someone like Dejountey Murray has to be brought in, he score multiple ways and is a WAY better defender than either Lakers current starting guards!
Trade DLo for Jalen Suggs or Kelly Oubre. These 2 players has impressive high basketball IQ. Actually, I like these 2 players to play in Lakers team. Hope Lakers trade for them.
